Where every Tuesday: I confess. Confession: Before I started personal training, I thought “Am I fit enough to be a trainer?” And sometimes I still do. I started my job two days after I graduated from college. I was ready. I was brimming with eagerness to start the job and get clients. Until the self…
Where every Tuesday: I confess. Confession: I sometimes forget there’s a whole big world out there and a LOT of stuff happens that really matters. A few weeks ago I had lunch and spent some time with an old friend Jamie. Jamie was a member in my team fitness class years ago and we became…
Thank You We had a very successful charity work out this past Sunday February 28th. We raised items and funds for Brooklyn Center Schools.

Where every Tuesday: I confess. Confession: I have writer’s block today and really want another cup of coffee. But with that confession, it made me think about one of my favorite stories of behavior change from my life. I might have already shared it, but it’s worth sharing again because it truly speaks volumes about how…
Where every Tuesday: I confess. Confession: I picked the bike up, slammed it down, said some curse words and got EXTREMELY frustrated. I like to try new things.

Where every Tuesday: I confess. Confession: I wore the exact same denim jumper as my teacher for my 5th grade photo day. Truth – maybe it was 6th grade? Either way, I was mortified. As if it wasn’t bad enough – I was unhappy with my body, not athletic or sporty, couldn’t wear clothes in…
Where every Tuesday: I confess Confession: I never planned to have a dog. I even planned against having a dog. I wanted a dog. But I didn’t want to have a dog in a small apartment, especially one on the 5th floor. I didn’t want to leave a dog alone all day while I went…
Where every Tuesday: I confess. Confession: I gained 10 lbs. Nope, it’s not muscle. Yep, it’s fat. From the time I got home from World’s Toughest Mudder (middle of November) to today January 5th I have gained damn close to 10 lbs. Hmmmm, no wonder my spandex pants feel tight and weird. Makes sense why I haven’t…
